How can I move from HTTP to HTTPS account?

The major difference between HTTP and HTTPS account is the opt-in trigger. On HTTP, users will have to go through a two-step process in order to subscribe. On HTTPS, you can choose between a one-step and a two-step process.

Here’s how to migrate your PushCrew account to an HTTPS-enabled account :

I. If your Website is valid and is on HTTPS :

1. Add your FCM information :

a. Login your PushCrew dashboard. On the main dashboard you will see the FCM Project Number and API Key section. Update your FCM details here. Here’s an article on how to get your FCM Project Number and API Key.

(NOTE: If you do not see the option for "FCM Project Number and API Key", you can move to the next step. This means that your account has already moved to a "New Service" where FCM information is not required.)

2. Click on Code and Implementation under Settings

Once you have updated your FCM information and clicked on ‘Use my key’, go to the Smart Code tab and click on the blue ‘Convert’ button

3. Change Icon (optional)

You’ll now be prompted to change the icon. You can do so by uploading an image. This is an optional step.

4. Download the zip file, copy to the root directory (/) of your domain and click on Done

You’ll now be asked to download the zip files and copy it to the root directory (/) of your domain. Once you do this, click on Done.

(Note: Please ensure that you have SmartCode present on the webpage where you want to show the opt-in. To know more click here.)

5. A message is shown if HTTPS files are not added to the root directory of your domain

If you’ve not copied the HTTPS files to the root directory of your domain properly/or you have not at all added the files, you’ll see the following message and will be asked to follow the step above.

6. Success message

You’ll see a success message that now tells you that you have successfully converted your account to HTTPS.

II. If your website is invalid:

If you have entered the wrong URL during the sign-up process and would like to change it to HTTPS, please contact support@pushcrew.com. You’ll see a message, as shown in the image below when your website is invalid for migration to HTTPS.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Once we migrate your account to HTTPS, we won't be able to revert it to HTTP. Also, please remember that the opt-in (editing title and message for opt-in) for an HTTPS account cannot be customized.
